The emphasis is on good value stuff, and there are some bargains. Here&#8217;s a 2007 Bordeaux that&#8217;s actually really nice. It&#8217;s proper Bordeaux, the way it should be, with no spoofiness, and it&#8217;s drinking perfectly now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ch\u00e2teau Lilian Ladouys St Est\u00e8phe 2007 Bordeaux<\/strong><br \/>\n12.5% alcohol. Pretty respectable Claret, this. Dark blackcurrant fruit nose with a lovely savoury, gravelly edge and some subtle roasted notes. The palate shows beautiful balance between the sweet, fresh blackcurrant fruit and the gravelly, minerally, savoury core. Rounded and satisfying, and avoids being austere while still possessing some edge and bite. Drinking very well now but with the stuffing to age for five years. 90\/100 (\u00a312.99 Waitrose, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.waitrosewine.com\/230988314\/Product.aspx\">here<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK supermarket Waitrose are doing a French Wine Showcase over the next month, with 25% off a range of French wines.
